The Role
You will develop the hardware modules that control, manipulate, and eliminate particle contamination sources inside Applied Materials’ next-generation SEM inspection tools — sitting at the intersection of physics, materials/surface science, and mechanical engineering. Your work will have a measurable impact on the most advanced chips manufactured today.
The problems you’ll face are often invisible, intermittent, and poorly understood. That’s exactly what makes this role compelling.
What You’ll Do
Design and develop hardware modules that reduce contamination sources
Investigate and resolve complex contamination events at the root-cause level
Embed contamination control in next-generation product from day one
Define best practices for building clean tools and knowledge across the team
Engage with customers and vendors on contamination challenges and specifications
Why This Role Matters
At single-digit nanometer feature sizes, a single particle landing on a wafer can damage critical structures, causing the device to be unusable. On a 300mm wafer carrying hundreds of high-value dies, particles contamination isn’t a housekeeping concern — it’s an enabler. The inspection tools are held to the highest standard.
What You Bring
MSc or PhD in Physics, Materials Science, Mechanical, Electrical, or Chemical Engineering
Advantages: Developing Semiconductor manufacturing or inspection equipment
Hands-on multidisciplinary experience with particle behavior, contamination metrology, or cleanliness
What sets you apart: You are self-driven, relentlessly curious, and thrive in problem spaces where the answers aren’t written down yet.
